I worked on a team of Consumer Sales Executives to develop new revenue for the Indiana Pacers through full and partial season ticket packages, group outings of 10 or more, as well as nightly suite rentals. Development of new business starts by reaching out to prospective clients via phone and email and ends by using the Ticketmaster program Archtics to secure specific seat locations. Through the various lead lists, I have generated roughly $54.02 per assigned lead.Sold over $240,000 for the 2013-14 NBA Regular Season:-- $193,000 in Full-, Half-, Mini-, and Micro-Season Packages-- $21,000 in Group Revenue of groups of 10 or more people-- $24,000 in Nightly Suite RentalsFinished 2nd overall out of 10 representatives within the department, in terms of overall revenue, while finishing 39th overall out of all NBA Inside Sales Executives for 2013-14.

As an intern, I cold-called youth basketball and volleyball teams to garner interest in facility-hosted tournaments and leagues. Also, I assisted in producing promotional materials that are issued to these basketball and volleyball coaches, and help to enhance the facility's website. Finally, I established and updated databases with current and past teams, as well as contributed to the facility's management.

I assisted through observing and communicating statistics and substitutions with the Sports Information Director for Division I sports, such as basketball, baseball, softball, volleyball, and soccer. I also operated scoreboards of baseball, softball, volleyball, and soccer contests. Before, during, and after baseball and softball games, I oversaw the music selections, specifically between innings and playing each player's walk-up music. Finally, I interacted with media members, officials, and coaches during and after games, delivering box scores with accurate statistics.

I worked with the Promotions and Community Relations Department during the summer of 2012. I staffed the promotions crew for every game from May until the end of the baseball season, bringing the department close to the labor budget that, prior to my arrival in May, was on track to be over budget by the end of the season. I worked side-by-side with the Production staff to execute promotions throughout these games, and I arranged and accompanied players and the mascot to several appearances throughout the community. More often than not, within the community, I usually dressed up as the mascot. I also created the team's weekly newsletter, which was sent to over 10,000 fan-subscribers before the season's end. In addition to that, I fulfilled many donation requests, as well as produced promotional material advertising upcoming games for the ballpark and the surrounding local area.
